1 INERIS - Institut National de l'Environnement Industriel et des Risques

Since 1972, CERCHAR has, in the civil sector, been responsible for the approval tests to which all explosive products in France must be submitted. This role of official laboratory has been assumed by INERIS since 01/01/91. This Institute has now taken over the main activities of CERCHAR. with its research teams and the installations in Verneuil. Its expertise extends to all major industrial hazards with the exception of those relating to nuclear power and transport. However, the transport of dangerous materials nevertheless constitutes an activity in which INERIS is increasingly involved.
